Episode 273: #Writing Books for When You're Stuck

A little help for when the words won't come.

Sometimes writing is hard, y’all. Well, mostly it’s hard (and it’s a fun job and we enjoy it)—but sometimes you’re just really stuck and you don’t know why. You need help—and we’ve got books that offer it.

In our new summer series, The Working Bookshelf, KJ and guest host Jennie Nash pull their favorite writing books off the shelf and debate: which is better and why—until invariably, they get distracted and just start talking about the topic at hand. Funny, fresh and full of frank advice, when KJ and Jennie get going they’re hard to stop.

This week, it’s The War of Art versus Dear Writer You Need to Quit.

In a new twist, you can also watch these episodes on YouTube. Find Episode 5 HERE.
